They might be struggling in the Premier League but the Gunners love a Europa League match.

It's their favourite competition of 2020-21.

Mikel Arteta's men have already sealed top spot in Group B after winning all five games. Will they make it six out of six in the early kick-off away to Dundalk?

Arsenal

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta names a completely different XI to the one that started in the 2-0 defeat by Tottenham last weekend.

Defender Calum Chambers makes his first start in over a year - he came on as a substitute against Rapid Vienna last week, having recovered from a cruciate ligament injury suffered last December.

Midfielder Emile Smith Rowe, 20, also makes his first start of the season while Icelandic goalkeeper Alex Runarsson begins in goal for the third Europa League game in succession.

Youngsters Karl Hein, Miguel Azeez, Ben Cottrell and Folarin Balogun are on the bench for the Gunners.

Dundalk XI: Rogers, Hoare, Boyle, Daniel Cleary, Gannon, Shields, Flores, Leahy, McEleney, Duffy, McMillan.

Subs: Corcoran, Wynne, Mountney, Kelly, Sloggett, Colovic, Gartland, Dummigan, McCarey.

Arsenal XI: Runarsson; Chambers, Mustafi, Mari; Cedric, Elneny, Willock, Maitland-Niles; Smith Rowe, Nketiah, Pepe.

Subs: Macey, Hein, Holding, Ceballos, Saka, Cottrell, Azeez, Balogun.

Christmas 2020 is hurtling ever closer but there is little festive cheer at Arsenal.

Anchored 15th in the Premier League, they've lost five of the last seven top-flight games. Their £56m striker has forgotten how to score and Mikel Arteta is overseeing the Gunners' worst start in the league since 1981.

Thank goodness then they're back on the European stage.
